Chapter 309: [Tyrant]
"That...... Mr. Itachi, Madam, I'll go back and report first. β
In front of him, the dark ninja who had listened to the conversation between the two of them throughout the whole process hesitated slightly, then spoke first, and then turned over and left without waiting for the two to reply at all.
I think it's to report the conversation between the two of them to Tsunade.
Itachi and Artoria smiled at each other, not paying attention.
"But...... He calls me Madame? β
Artoria also got up, slowly, and was not in a hurry to go to the meeting, "Do you often talk to others outside about our relationship?" β
Hearing her say this, Itachi's expression was quite helpless, "Since I came to Konoha, have I ever been separated from you for a moment?" β
Artoria pondered for a moment, "Not really. β
"So...... There are some things that can't be hidden. β
Itachi snapped his fingers and counted what they had done since they arrived in Konoha, "We went to see the lantern festival together, the festival, and the bonfire party in the back mountain. β
"After the New Year, although there are no activities, we are together every day."
"Such an obvious thing can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye."
The two of them said as they walked out.
The pace is steady, not slow.
By the time they arrived at the Hokage Building and entered the conference room under the guidance of the Shadow Ninja, it was already full.
And it seems that it has already been discussed for a round.
"Uchiha Itachi, you look like you're breezy and cloudy."
On the main seat, the fifth generation stared at the Uchiha Itachi, "Are you really so sure about the affairs of the Xiao organization?" β
"That's the eye of reincarnation, the legendary six immortals' children's skills."
"We don't know what power these eyes have."
She had already listened to the ninja who had just passed the news, and reported on his behavior after hearing the news and the conversation she had with her lady.
But these two ......
Is it arrogance, or is it confident?
"Unknowns and reverie are necessary factors that contribute to fear."
Sitting down in the two empty seats next to the desk, Itachi looked calm, "I've already communicated with the fifth generation before. β
"We all spread the news together, trying not to let that Payne continue to play up the image of himself, and define these eyes by things that ordinary people know about the blood line."
"But shouldn't we believe it ourselves, too?"
Tsunade pondered for a moment, "So what do you do?" β
"Nope."
Itachi shook his head, "I just don't want our own side to lose our sharpness and fighting spirit before the war starts. β
At that moment, a hoarse voice rang out from inside the office.
"Is morale so important to Itachi-kun?"
Itachi turned his head to look, but he saw the familiar but somewhat unfamiliar figure.
Orochimaru.
This is an old acquaintance, although there has never been much friendship between the two, and there are only too many intersections.
But in a sense, the time when he officially knew this Orochimaru was longer than that of Jiraiya and Tsunade.
This man......
It's still so cold and dangerous, like a poisonous snake.
But compared to the poisonous snake that used to be, there is a more inscrutable feeling.
Lost a bit of humanity.
"Is Itachi-kun really for morale?"
Orochimaru continued, "Or, from the bottom of your heart, you feel that the Six Paths Immortal is just a ninja? β
"I thought that someone like Itachi-kun who broke the balance in the ninja world would focus more on results than ...... Morale is such an ethereal thing that most people will follow. β
"Huh...... This remark is very interesting, the Six Paths Immortal is just a ninja with a special bloodline boundary. β
He showed interest in Uchiha Itachi's opinion that the Six Paths Immortals were not immortals, but just humans.
Itachi replied to Orochimaru's sudden inquiry, "Morale ...... Maybe it can't be described like that, but it should be said, the general trend, the great righteousness. β
"If the Xiao organization continues to develop for such a long time and steadily, then maybe they dominate the ninja world, which is the trend of the times and the desire of the people."
"And I, it's impossible to accept that."
"In the same way, I don't want the Uchiha to be an enemy of the world, and I don't want the Fire Country to be an enemy of the world."
If the Xiao Organization really flaunts the banner of 'salvation' and 'peace', and has the 'descendants of the Six Dao Immortals' as the 'king', it may be a good thing for the people who have been devastated by the war.
Then when the time comes, who is on the opposite side of the Xiao organization.
Who is the enemy of peace.
Being an enemy of the world is something that Uchiha Itachi has always been worried about.
The Uchiha can't be the enemy of the world, hundreds of people, eating, drinking, and wearing...... It's all about robbing, that's not going to work, it's not realistic.
Many people have understood these words of the ferret.
"Itachi-kun, I mean, you think the immortals are ......"
However, some people don't care about Itachi's words at all, and what Orochimaru cares about is the matter of the Six Dao Immortals.
But before he could finish speaking, Tsunade had already interrupted him.
"Orochimaru, now is not the time to talk about the Six Dao Immortals and your so-called immortal thoughts."
As she spoke, she stopped Orochimaru's somewhat unwilling eyes with her eyes.
But......
Orochimaru, who doesn't seem to care about everything, is still willing to listen to Tsunade's words.
He temporarily suppressed his interest in some of the thoughts that came out of Itachi's mouth.
Itachi's gaze moved away from Orochimaru's body, "But the Xiao organization is not moving forward in a step-by-step manner now, although I don't know what the reason is. β
"But...... And that's a good thing. β
"The more visible they are, the more urgent they are, the more they are exposed, the more people will be dissatisfied and revolt."
Itachi continued, "I just changed the thunder shadow and the earth shadow casually, and I didn't find an absolutely suitable excuse, and I didn't have time to pave the way, I directed and acted in a so-called coup d'Γ©tat, and I directed and acted in a so-called Zen Rang, who would believe it?" β
"Maybe the situation in the entire ninja world has changed now."
"If you don't make any more moves, will your own Kazekage, Hokage, and Mizukage be replaced?"
"What about the Daimyo? The status of the daimyo can also be replaced, and the officials of various countries can be replaced, so whether they will continue to support the Xiao organization at that time is very likely to happen with the current situation. β
"Does this Payne really feel that he has a pair of reincarnation eyes and is a god, and his words are convincing to the sky? No way. β
As he asked, he replied from someone else's point of view, "The rewards and punishments are unknown, there is no cause or effect, it is all up to his own preferences, and if he is the head of a mercenary organization, then naturally no one will object to anything." β
"He has the eye of reincarnation and is the strongest person in the organization, who would dare to oppose it? Of course not. β
"But if he doesn't want to be the head of a mercenary organization, if he wants to be the king of this world, then he is not qualified."
Itachi said it very bluntly, and the image of a self-righteous and opinionated tyrant instantly appeared in everyone's hearts.
A tyrant, in the name of saving the world and peace? That's kind of ridiculous.
"But right now, the size of the Xiao organization is always expanding, and that's a fact."
Tsunade understands his words.
But again, these are just speculations and analyses, not ...... Authentic.
"It has the strength of the two ninja villages of Iwa and Cloud, and the financial resources of the two great countries of Earth and Thunder."
"In addition, the Xiao organization itself is not a simple commodity."
"It's a fact that people are breaking their heads all the time to enter this organization."
